I take my time before I start to speak
Adjust my posture and breathe the air deep
That's when I notice they're staring at me
Waiting so patiently
I take a walk through the bramble and bloom
For if to find that the two are in tune
Tangled beneath in an endless routine
Under the evergreen
What if I lose my mind
What if the oceans rise
And there's no time to say goodbye
I hesitate 'fore I turn to depart
Only to find that I'm back at the start
Anxious and eager and tired and true
Walking the road next to you
